Synopsis:
A young boy, William West, joins Easy Company. The boy isn't 17 yet, so Rock orders him to return to base. Before the kid can follow the order, an enemy attack begins. Bulldozer and the other members of Easy protect the kid, while Easy fights for their lives. Rock and Bulldozer commandeer an enemy tank, but they are knocked unconscious by an explosion. When they recover, they find "Junior" has taken over the tank and is fighting admirably. After the fight Rock allows the boy to stay, when Junior shows him a tiny whisker on his chin.
